A Mansura man is being accused of distributing child pornography, according to Louisiana State Police.

An investigation began last month by investigators from the Louisiana State Police Bureau of Investigations Special Victims Unit in the Alexandria Field Office into "illicit images of child sexual abuse," reads a release.

The investigation identified Dustin Novo, 27, as a suspect. A search warrant was served at his home on Wednesday, after which an arrest warrant for him was obtained.

He was booked into the Avoyelles Parish Detention Center on 80 counts of distribution of child pornography. The investigation is continuing, reads the release.
